RackSwitch

RackSwitch products from BLADE take a breakthrough approach that is becoming known as “Rackonomics” to reduce the total cost of ownership of data center infrastructures, overcome network overload and enable scale-out data center economies.

For the first time, data center architects can standardize on a unified and affordable rack-level, or top of rack, network infrastructure to provision and scale out Web 2.0 environments, high-performance clusters and virtualized data centers.

BLADE’s new 1U RackSwitch product family extends virtualization by mirroring the benefits of server virtualization within the network at the rack level, saves energy through rack-friendly cooling and alleviates management pain by removing complexity through simplified management and fabric convergence.

VIRTUAL: Networking Virtualization switch-resident software SmartConnect™: Worlds first rack-level network virtualization
VMready™: Removes stress on network caused by virtualization (e.g. migrating network security policies)
